Leslie booked the guided tour at Cal Poly SLO for this morning. We had already seen the campus, but were anxious to hear about it from a student's perspective. This one was a big hit! The school is surrounded by gorgeous green hillsides, the town is adorable and the campus has a lot of updated buildings and isn't too overwhelming.
25% of students study Engineering at Cal Poly, but they also have Nutrition, Kinesiology and Bio/Pre-Med. Taylor and Lauren are both leaning towards something related to these sciences. Reanna seemed interested in the Engineering though too!
Who knows…maybe some of these girls will be future Mustangs!
A few more hours in the car for an evening stop at Santa Clara University. Wow! What a gorgeous campus!
We all loved the clean, beautifully-landscaped buildings and the long walkways. The gym is being redone, the soccer training complex is state of the art and
the chapel was so pretty!
Unfortunately the price tag for tuition is quite high and the cost of living in the Santa Clara/San Jose is outrageous! It may be extra incentive for scholarship applications!!
We ended our day with dinner and shopping at Valley Fair Mall while we waited for traffic to die down. Taylor found her prom dress, so she was thrilled and that is one less thing we have to do once home!
